The panel has been tasked with determining whether or not the president has a case to answer to.

In October, MPs were given six days to submit information relevant to the allegations.

Ramaphosa was then given ten days to respond.

That deadline ends on 6 November.

The African Transformation Movement party submitted a motion against him to jump-start an inquiry into his removal for misconduct and violating the Constitution.
